Fish waste on the sand-bed after water change?

[codewon]

I just got done with my weekly water change and I noticed there is a large amount of fish poop in one area of the tank.

Is this normal? Will it go away? Should I just clean the sandbed?

Usually detritus aka fish poo will accumulate in one area of the tank and that’s dictated by the flow from your power heads. Totally normal. In a bare bottom tank it’s really convenient because I only have to siphon one pile and I always know where it’s at lol.
